It is rational to continue the series of throwbacks with a memory of how EYP Georgia was granted an opportunity to host 86th International Session of European Youth Parliament in our beautiful country of Georgia. We asked our Ex-President, Ms. Mariam Demetrashvili, who lead the National Committee of EYP Georgia in 2015-2016, to recollect how the planning of such a large-scale event embarked on back in February of 2016.

Read what she has to share with us:

“It certainly is gratifying to be able to observe the process of Tbilisi 2017’s preparation. Especially since the session was officially granted to the National Committee of EYP Georgia during my presidency. Recalling the time, when our Board was selflessly working on the bid, which we later on submitted to the International Office, definitely brings back some of the best memories. It truly started with a will to once again challenge ourselves and eventually transformed into the most prominent experience. It is without doubt, a tremendous success, which proves how far the National Committee of EYP Georgia has come.
With 4 more months to go, it is safe to say that Tbilisi 2017 will be a spectacular event!”

Let’s have our first EYP throwback to 9th National Selection Conference, which was held in one of the oldest and prettiest cities of Georgia, Kutaisi, in August of 2015. The session was a part of the project BASES: Building A Strong European Society of the International Office in cooperation with the German Federal Foreign Office. BASES aimed at enhancing dialogue and mutual understanding as well as broadening the cooperation among civil society in the countries of the Eastern Partnership.

There were number of sessions, training and other events organised within the project by different National Committees of the EaP countries. EYP Georgia is thankful to BASES for the opportunities it gave to Georgian youngsters both on national and international scales.
